7. Taking Next Steps Together
The extraordinary progress in open science and public access led by federal agencies has laid the foundation for these critical next steps. As we move forward together in implementing these critical actions, we will do so in partnership and with a shared vision for an ever-stronger and more equitable federal scientific ecosystem.
Immediate public access to America’s research publications and data will serve our collective goals of accelerating scientific discovery, strengthening translation and policymaking, and lowering the barriers of access to science for all of America.
As we move forward, OSTP will establish a process for supporting the implementation of these updates. We are grateful to you and your dedicated staff for your valued contributions to strengthening public access and supporting the advancement of health, safety, security, and equity.
